"Who knows? Jameson might’ve been in cahoots with Zoe and responsible for what happened earlier tonight, all just to strike
while the iron's hot!" Silas snapped. He wasn't as reserved as his brother was. So, he tore off Jameson's false mask right away.
Winston and Lyla were shocked and in disbelief.
"I know none of you like me, Mr. Jonah. You all know I love Lyse deeply, too. But that doesn't mean you can slander me like
that," Jameson said.
He gently touched his glasses and continued, "I have no relations with Zoe whatsoever. The only time was during the horse
races. She wanted to cause trouble for Lyse, so I went to Lyse's defense. That's it.
"You're Lyse's brothers, so I won't take further action this time. But I hope there won't be a next time."
Fuck! If his father and Lyla weren't here right now, Silas would've cursed out loud already!
He finally saw how someone could be so adept at shifting the blame from themselves!
"Don't say things without proof, Silas," Winston reminded, his gaze complicated.
Silas was incredibly anxious. He was about to rush forward when Jonah held him back.
"Jameson, it's impossible for you to marry Lyse. Nor will your brother, David, ever marry Taty!"
The moment Jonah said this, Winston and Lyla were left stunned.
Jameson's brows knit tightly together, suspicion growing in his chest.
"Mr. Taylor, Mr. Victor is here to see you!" Barry, the butler, ran over to report.
"Victor is here? At this hour?" Winston asked incredulously, glancing at his watch.
Victor didn't come to meet them alone. He'd brought his eldest, Josh. It was quite the party.
"What did our son do to you, Jonah Taylor? How could you treat David this way? You're too outrageous!" Victor roared, storming
into the house. He was so angry even his cheeks were trembling. "What you did was no different than sticking a knife right
between my ribs!"
Jonah's expression was extremely cold. A deadly glint shone in his narrowed eyes. He had already prepared himself for the
Schmidt family's confrontation.
After all, Jonah was the one who sent David to the police station to help Alyssa and Sean.
"What's going on, Jonah? What did you do to David?" Winston was confused.
Victor's commotion had caused Colene and Mandy to come over as well.
"Mr. Taylor, Jonah locked my brother in jail and planned to charge him with rape!" Josh gritted out. "I don't know whether this was
Jonah's idea or your beloved daughter's! Are they picking on the weak now? Did they decide to mess with David because he
can't fight back now?"
Everyone besides Jonah reeled in shock.
Jameson had a gloomy expression on his face. He gently pushed his glasses, immediately understanding what was going on.
Jonah and the others had seen through David and Daisy's schemes already. Not only did David not get to Tatiana, he even
ended up falling on his own ass.
What a loser.
If Jameson had known they couldn't even get this little thing done, he would've helped them from the start.
Victor was so angry he couldn't breathe properly anymore. Josh glared at Jonah while holding his father up. "You didn't have to
use such despicable methods to mess with David if you didn't want the marriage to go through! Is this the sort of tactics that the
rich and powerful use?"
Before Jonah could speak, Colene had erupted angrily, "Who are you calling despicable?"
Winston was shocked.
Colene truly was her father's daughter. She was a fierce tigress for sure!
"Your father has known Winston for 30 years, so you know exactly what our family is like! If you don't find us trustworthy, why did
you come all the way here just to kiss our asses?" Colene snapped.
She was getting angrier by the second. Her hands were now tucked at her waist as she continued, "You think no one else wants
our girls? That we have no choice but to fill up the holes in your family? How dare you question our family? I don't think we even
need to go through with the marriage now! Josh's behavior absolutely disgusts me!"
